What Is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is an ancient healing art rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It involves inserting ultra-thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow (Qi) and promote the body's natural healing processes.


Led by Dr. Whitney—a certified acupuncturist and certified dry needling specialist with decades of experience—our acupuncture care has helped thousands of patients achieve pain relief, stress reduction, and improved health without the use of drugs or surgery.


Modern science confirms that acupuncture helps regulate the nervous system, release endorphins, reduce inflammation, and improve circulation—making it a powerful solution for a wide range of health conditions.

When Should You Seek Acupuncture Treatment?

Acupuncture is suitable for people of all ages and health backgrounds. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, acute injuries, emotional stress, or internal health concerns, acupuncture may offer the relief and support you need.



We often recommend acupuncture to patients who are:

  • Living with chronic pain or inflammation
  • Managing stress, anxiety, or sleep disorders
  • Recovering from sports injuries
  • Experiencing headaches or migraines
  • Seeking holistic support for hormonal or digestive imbalances


Your First Acupuncture Visit: What to Expect

During your first visit, Dr. Whitney performs a detailed consultation and diagnostic workup using his proven Query Protocol.


This helps determine whether you're a strong candidate for acupuncture and outlines the most effective treatment approach.

Please avoid caffeine and alcohol on the day of your visit.


Plan your appointment during a time when you can relax and allow your body to respond fully to treatment.

Common

Acupuncture Questions

  • What is acupuncture and how does it work?


    Acupuncture is a natural healing technique that involves inserting very thin needles into specific points on the body. These points activate the nervous system, improve energy flow, reduce inflammation, and stimulate the body’s natural ability to heal.


  • Is acupuncture painful?


    Most patients feel little to no discomfort during acupuncture. The needles are extremely fine—about the width of a human hair. Many people find the treatment relaxing and even fall asleep during their session.


  • What conditions can acupuncture help?


    Acupuncture is effective for treating chronic pain, stress, anxiety, migraines, digestive issues, allergies, insomnia, and more. It’s also a great complement to chiropractic care for faster, longer-lasting relief.


  • How many acupuncture sessions will I need?


    The number of sessions depends on your condition and how your body responds. Some patients experience relief after one session, while others benefit from a series of treatments to achieve lasting results.


  • Can acupuncture be combined with chiropractic care?

    Yes! In fact, combining acupuncture with chiropractic care can enhance your results by addressing both the structural and energetic imbalances in the body.


  • Is acupuncture safe?

    Yes. Acupuncture is a safe, time-tested practice performed by trained professionals. 


    At Whitney Chiropractic Center, we follow strict hygiene and safety standards for every treatment.
